That building looks amazing. Great work Danny! What are your thoughts on Rose Tico?
His buildings are really nice
Rose tico was inside arkam asylum, batman thwarted Bane's attempt to get her a new movie role
Rose Tico can fix anything, including toxic masculinity--with garden shears.
+scott olson If you like dangerous super-powered psychopaths away in an insane asylum... they win!
you sure this is not Dave Finch messing with you?
I can’t be sure of anything anymore.
ComicArtistPro Secrets FYI. @12:25TS *BatsJump-Kick panel The Chest & Up is 100% Swiped from J.Lee's All-Star Batman #1 Cvr.* All of which Still looks way better than the guy who draws JLoA, thus this "Soccer Gentleman" Should have his job.
5 Fold Understanding the artist on JLoA is Hugo Petrus.... and I can’t find the Jim Lee cover in which you speak anywhere, unless it was some crazy exclusive one.
KyleRyznarMMA *Not Rebirth* It's All-Star Batman & Robin Boy Wonder #1 ((Jim Lee Cvr. Written by Frank Miller))! I figured everybody owned that #1 ish,,, if Not Also see: the Graphic Novel which I'm pretty sure it's also the Cvr of (vol.1). TOP HALF Of Batsy Solar Plexus & Up, is 100% what was Swiped for said panel.
5 Fold Understanding I own the hardcover...but I don’t see it... it’s similar but it’s also Batman only so many ways Batman can be drawn in the same style
Ethan, could you do a "How to Shade video" I feel like a lot of criticism is about shading
I have done it, in each video, a little.
@smoknorb
If you look back at Ethan's Brutally Honest Portfolio Review #14, he goes into great detail about his personal inking techniques and style.
Here is a link if you want it:

Hope that helps.
Very nice. On that first panel, a rising mist could have helped separate those planes and create depth and mood.
If Danny isn't working professionally that means there is no hope for the rest of us.
ComicsLegend There's open Spots at DC/ *See: The Newest TERRIBLY DRAWN Ish of JLoA* (w/ Dope Chronos Cvr)..
Also @12:25TS Bats Jump-Kick panel; The Chest & Up is 100% Swiped from J.Lee's All-Star Batman #1 Cvr.
Yeah, swipes are more common than we think. Even the greats used to swipe other artists to keep on model and style when they took over drawing books. I think I read somewhere that even the great John Romita Sr. used to swipe so that he could learn from the masters. I guess as long as you give credit to the artist then I think it should be ok if you are studying.
Erasmus Beethoven Well EB "All-Star Batmn & Robin Boy Wonder #1 Cvr." ALSO used for Cvr. Of GN Written by Frank Miller. IMO Is 1 of Jim Lee's 4 Greatest {Most Recongizible} covers ever. *So to me IT REALLY STANDS OUT,* Swipng the top half of A Flagship Cvr for A panel isn't smart for A portfolio. BUT I DO AGREE w/ YOU- THERE'S SO MUCH ART OUT THERE ITS EXTREMELY TOUGH TO SAY "Whatever It is" is A definitive Swipe/Carbon copy or not (but Google All-Star Batman & Robin #1 Jim Lee Cvr./ Click images & you'll C the similarities from the 12:25TS Panel) & Yes Theirs Never been an Onslaught of Fun/Good looking books out there to pick images from..
ComicsLegend 100% Agree.. Also there's so much out there already,,,, one could easily be blamed of swiping/copying (( EVS called it "Compositing" )) even when they didn't.. All because there's only so many ways to draw say "Aquaman swimming", "Bane's Arms" or whatever.
I feel the same way. This is seriously on another level.
@12:25TS *BatsJump-Kick panel The Chest & Up is 100% Swiped from J.Lee's All-Star Batman & Robin Boy Wonder #1 Cvr.* All of which Still looks way better than the guy who draws JLoA, thus this "Soccer Gentleman" Should have his job.
Great job Danny! By the way, If you like David finch's work, he has tutorials on the gnomon workshop that are really good. You can see how he builds a figure from start to finish.
Listening to Ethan getting so excited over someone's work is such a joy. Well done Danny! astonishing work!
This was a great review Uncle E. I learned so much, please keep the reviews coming.
I'm upset I can't buy this comic right now. Love his style so much.
I don't do comic art, but I've learned A LOT about architectural drawings through these critiques. Thanks artists, and Ethan!
I almost expected to see a Star Wars portfolio... But this is beautiful work Danny! 1000x better than anything at Marvel right now.
This is great work, he seems to have followed the opposite artistic trajectory to myself, i have my faces and body forms locked in and still on occasion struggle with back grounds. Great composition work too
My God, the ink work looks stunning!
That is a HELL of an opening shot. Good work sir
(also...) Obviously its not all perfect, but the best comic art is always the kind of stuff where you can tell how much effort the artist put in. This comic is full of WORK. And that's all anyone can ask for. Great stuff
That looks really good! Great to see comic stuff too
One of the best ones yet! Great work Danny
Awesome portfolio submission! Much props Danny, great visuals. Ethan how does one get the rain effect? White out pen?
This guy is fantastic. Really impressed. He's ready for the pros! Great rendering and storytelling.
I really like this a lot, I actually have a David Finch print hanging behind me right now that is very much like what we are looking at. I have one criticism though. He puts too much detail into the backgrounds. It's amazing work, but it's easy to lose the focus of character against the amazingly drawn backgrounds. If I was doing a high detail background, I would pull out away from the characters a bit. I also agree, it's better to use softer cross hatching on flesh. It's better if one of your hatching strokes follows the contour of the shape, in general.
That some great artwork. I would buy books with Danny being the artist of it.
Great job Danny, you are definitely one to watch.
I'm no artist, and definitely not a professional one, but if I had one thing that kept bothering me, it was Bane's fingers. They kept looking like they were as flat as paper, there was no girth to them, so they didn't look like real fingers. They almost looked like party horns. They wound up looking more creepy than powerful to me. I did like the second page where Batman was perched on part of the building and how the Batmobile was done though. Very nice.
I know this is a few years later but I get so Excited see great art work like this.
Excellent work, Danny! Hoo boy, this makes me nervous. I'm gonna have to bring my A-game...
Great review! Love this artist’s style.
My biggest problem is with the way Batman is drawn.
The design is far to *muscily.*
Unless Bruce Wayne spent considerable time sculpting every cinue and vein pop into the costume; he should not look like that.
And um... Where are his hips?
In the panel where Batman stands over Bane, his legs seem to sprout from his belt.
Bane's musculature, even for a super-roided, uber-jock is anatomically incorrect.
Also... Where's his nose?
I find too many artists flattening the face when they're given a character with a full head mask (balaclava).
This happens with Spider-man too.
On the pro side... LOVE the detail in the backgrounds. as well as the beautiful use of light and shadow.
I would suggest he work on his anatomy and poses.
Insert Owen Wilson style "wow".
Wow great art!
I'm blown away. Great stuff.
I randomly stumbled on this video and know it's a bit old now. It's a really good portfolio, he should be proud he's multi-talented, wonder if he was hired. I've never considered even trying to apply for comics because it seems too impossible, but I know I can do this level of art and you praising him so much has kind of made me think maybe I should look into it.
The cylindrical tanks on bane's back bug me the whole time. The perspective on them always seems off. Also, what happened to the tanks on Bane's back when he's been beaten by batman? Bane is lying on his back but the tanks dont' seem to occupy any space.
The buildings are great, the characters need work.
Incredible artwork
Great stuff Danny!
Those backgrounds tho !
Great work but this really reminds me of the button especially the fight
yep
Also that seen with the batmoblie looks like something from Batman rebirth #1 or something close to that
Damn! That opening shot! 😯
Why the hell is the Star Wars channel doing portfolio reviews?
Kidding, glad to see another BHPR!
That was only 4 pages? It felt like a lot more lol, great job all around!
Great work Danny. Take Ethan pointers and your golden
Such a good drawing of Arkham Asylum that I'd like to spend the night there all bed & breakfast style!
what kind of format do you send to editors (PDF)? (hardcopies)? ( website links)? I have art but im not sure how or what format tp send editors my art.
what format did Danny send you so you can review his art?
man this guys art is all over the place, sometimes its flawless and other times its... eh-, ya know? lol
Outstanding.
Excellent portfolio but even better Review. I'll be back, gotta burn my portfolio pages and start all over again.
That Batman face close-up on page 3 screams "Rob Liefeld" to me.
That second frame looks a ton like Finch's #1 batman the dark knight new 52... If he did that originally it's amazing, a true Finch devotee, which is great because I love Finch!
The views may not support it but I'd love to see you do more if this kind of thing. It's been 5 years and you've obviously moved on from doing portfolio reviews but I'd love more
EVS doing portfolio reviews, Pepridge Farm remembers...... glad to see it. that guy is great
I’m not having mine reviewed after Danny’s. Hopefully the next guy draws power puff girls cuz following that’s gonna be a little tough
That first Bane panel is FUCKING amazing.
You went to page two and I felt like I was supposed to throw away all my "art"
I can't wait too see Danny draw some DC comics!
very cool
EVS Dont ya mean "Fortunately"? - You Dont have to (Draw 4 Day panels) Gotham noir/ Metropolis landscapes & Mad Ruler lines. We always figured thats why you dont draw Superman Batmn comics!
He used "4 perspective point", 3 perspective points are used for building and the gate is 1 perspective point drawn I think
If I had to criticize his work for any reason it would be his action scenes. So many speed lines and weird flow to the panels. Speed lines diagonal! Speed lines center! Speed lines right...speedlines left!! LEFT punch! Weird undynamic static close up! Right punch! lol beyond that he's almost flawless..
Gooooooooooooooaaaaalll!
Oooohhhhh Danny Boy, Marvel and DC will be calllllllliiiiiiiiiinnnggggg!
I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Danny's name on a DC comic in the next couple years.
would it be beneficial for Danny to start off inking other people's pencils to develop speed/style, or could that stunt an artist in the long run?
Man.... after seeing this I feel like I have no talent at all whatsoever.
All I can say is... "ROSE TICO!"
the 3d page was like killing joke page
210 likes and 0 dislikes. On a role Uncle Ethan.
Never use a drawing of Rian Johnson's head for your marble pillar tops.
Love the backgrounds. Way better than anything I could do. However, the neck anatomy for both batman and bane are not anatomically correct like at all.
And remember folks, your 4 - 6 pages have to star Rose Tico as the hero.
jsnsk101 I'd rather Vader chop off my hand...
Please tell me you're going to get this guy a back-up in the next Hal Jordan and the GLC annual.
OK, impressive at first, but loads of Finch/Quesada/Yu in it. No real originality.
Bart Sears had good advise for storytelling. Draw a guy leaving an office building, real people, cars, he goes into a park and changes into a superhero, flies away.
And I disagree, I like the 90s teeth. :)
Robert Schmidt nothing wrong with 90’s teeth if it’s done right.
Ethan do you know he’s currently everywhere in mainstream comics now?
He is? That’s great!
@@ComicArtistProSecrets google him, all credit to Gail Simone
Fucking damn, man.
Wow
O Danny boy the tills the tills a filling good stuff dude you will get there good channel thanks newyork kkkkkkk
I think this guy would be hired to do a font pagers or a single cool shot?
I’m 30 seconds in and wow
I feel like he’ll make a good environment artist because his figure work is confusing with an identity crisis.
I’m sure it took a while but maybe he doesn’t want to ink himself
We're I a professional, I'd send you a portfolio just to see if you could sniff me out and figure out who I really was.
Your a cat, you can't fool me just by putting in blue contacts
Scott Olson Drat, foiled again! But the feline empire will rise and you will rue this day!
Man this give me hope he's 28 I'm 27 and I'm trying to do my thing
animedrummerboy from a 42 year old regretting "what might have been..." now, don't give up. Keep at it.
As eager as I am for my turn at the Brutally Honest treatment... I don't want to follow this dude.
lol
Hi Ethan what’s your email id like you to review some of my work?
Technically the art is good most of the time...sad thing is the guy straight up traced some art from Fabok, Finch and Jim Lee. Not referenced it, traced it. Then there's this completely different style on the faces, that's Freddie Williams from Batman/ TMNT...😒 What a hack.
Notice how the stuff he drew by heart is much lower quality .
Synopsis: Quiet night in Gotham. Batman at a loss for something to do decides to break into Bane's cell. Batters him to a pulp. Roars away in the Batmobile.
